The hair started falling out mid April, and still coming out. I have very fine thin hair but I am coping. I am perfectly happy if I never lose another pound. It has been wonderful for me and my husband.

My husband has lost 90, about like you Bob! Congratulations, I know you are a new person, just like he is! Best thing we all could have ever done for our health.

We have a similar path, I was sleeved Nov 20, started at 211 down to 146, my hair loss started at 3 months exactly and has pretty much stopped thankfully! I cut my hair last week and now I can barely tell it's thin, the layering really helped! Here's a pic of my hubby and I last night at a wedding then I'll throw in a preop photo I just found on hubby's phone bc it shocked the crap out of me, I don't have many preop pics of me bc I got very camera shy towards the "end"

So proud to be a Nov 2013 Sleever!

You look great! And I love your dress! Dont think I could pull a dress off or maybe its all in my head. I was looking at pics recently of myself a year or so bfr surgery and cant believe how far i let myself go. I did not cut my hair could not do it. But Im so happy the hair loss finally stopped! Good luck on the rest of your journey:)

I had a wonderful NSV over the weekend, for the first time in my life i wore a pair of WHITE pants. I was so nervous and almost chickened out...But i got so many positive reactions. more than 5 people actually said WOW you look GREAT! I dont think im quite brave enough for a swimsuit yet but Im happy with this! loving my sleeve!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
